Come on, when do I ever gush? SHE'S the one doing the gushing. I just explain how it happened. hehe. ;-)

We did have an hour or so after the kids went to bed where we went to my car and kissed and talked, and kissed some more, and talked and touched, and kissed and....um..stuff that wasn't talking or kissing but was along the same lines as what talking and kissing can lead to if you know what I mean. :-P
It was all good though, nothing TOO fast taking place. We both expressed that we wanted to wait for when it's just her and me and we don't have to be hiding in a car or in a garage or whatever to have fun. Let's just say that we both know we're totally compatible in that way. The great thing is that she WANTS to do the things my ex's never wanted to do because it actually requires MINIMAL effort to do. My ex's were selfish and lazy. You don't know how many times i've done something one sided only to NEVER have the favor returned or even instigated. I never even got an excuse at all! Just like the 328-1 massage statistic. Same thing was the case in the bedroom.
So let's just say she's happy that I like to give as much as receive and i'm the same. She did happen to mention that after a few times of her doing something to her ex, that he said "I don't want you to do that. I think it's dirty." so those times were few and far between. I told her that "He must be frickin crazy. I think HE belongs at this camp!" and she just died and laughed so hard.
The best part was just us both trying so HARD to not take care of each other in the car. We both wanted a little something and we both teased each other quite a bit. It was cool outside but my windows were sure foggy on the inside!

Ok, enough of that. You all get the idea. The most memorable part of the evening was when we said goodbye. Were were alone and we hugged and kissed and said how much we'd miss each other until next week and she just wouldn't let go of me. I wasn't about to push her away but when I relaxed she was still clinging on for dear life. She was worried that i'd have trouble driving home so late and held my face and said "Please be careful, please drive slowly, I just can't lose you now." I told her i'd be fine (I did start nodding off though after about 1 1/2 hours of driving. Yikes! didn't get home till 3 am!) and she walked away....and then ran back and hugged me again..and said "I know, you have to go." and walked away...and then ran back again! and she held my hand and stepped back and just looked into my eyes. She just stood there and smiled. But her hand was holding me so tight that her whole arm was shaking.
She wasn't being all crazy or anything, she just feels that strongly about me. I've NEVER had anyone express ANYTHING that close to me even when times were good with my ex's and they said "Oh, you're everything to me blah blah." and such. I mean, Betty not only says it but she shows it, expresses it, gushes it, breathes it, wills it into existence. If I could bottle and sell this feeling, i'd be a billionare! (but of course i'm too selfish to share what we have together and I think it is only something that should be between us as individuals.) But it would be great if everyone found someone to share something like this with. I hardly remember driving home. I just thought about her the whole way. (until I started passing out) When I got home, I read a letter she wrote me. She stayed up until 2 am one night writing me 3 pages of just thoughts she had to get out. It was very touching and just in her words I could tell how happy she was and how glad she is that i've touched her life this way. She really feels like this could go on forever and that she would be happy if I was her partner in life even though the future is uncertain. She just feels that I am her match in so many ways and that yes, we will have differences and the distance will be hard to get through, she doesn't care as long as she takes that chance with me. Serious stuff.
It makes me feel very humble that someone like me can stir up so many emotions and feelings that a person could change their whole life to share it with me. (not saying it WILL happen, but the idea of is still a big thing) I don't feel afraid or worried like I did with Joy and Robin saying the same things to me and then becoming two-faced because it was all BS.

The other good news is that I found out that Betty is allowed to leave Friday and return Sunday morning. I originally though it was Sat-Sun. And as a bonus, "grandma" is driving about 5 miles from my apartment to stay with some friends so she can drop Betty off to stay with me! She just about did a backflip when I told her that she can stay with me for 2 nights. So, I know we'll have good times ahead for the weekend. :-)
She showed me that she removed her ring that he gave her since I saw her last. She also said that he called her back and asked if she wanted to get back with him. (big surprise right?) She told him "no" (at least she tells me that) and he said that he is planning on moving to Australia forever. (Don't know if he's telling the truth or exaggerating. I guess his "good female friend" wasn't good enough to satisfy him once Betty was gone. Too bad for him. His mistake, his loss. I joked of that to her and she said "I don't know..I don't care though, it doesn't matter now. I've found everything i've ever wanted right here and I won't go back."
